Major Event: From Flood to Famine


“From Flood to Famine”

            This event is major in ancient Chinese dynasty of Han for multiple reasons and lead to multiple bad things. In the Han emperor Wang Mang was ruling dynasty while it was going through a lot of unlucky and terrible occurrences. For example, in A.D. 11 the was a big flood of the yellow river which led to a big famine (when food becomes very scarce and people starve) in China and after the famine emperor Wang Mang was rebelled against by a lot of the people who lived in his civilization. And another thing that happened is a lot of people from that civilization migrated. This is bad because if a lot of the people migrate then the civilization becomes very weak and is a big harm of being attacked by others or Mongolians. Another reason this was a bad chain of events is because it ended up to the downfall of that dynasty in A.D. 25. If this never happened the dynasty probably would of lasted a lot longer but after this all the people in that civilization thought it was a sign from god to rebel the ruler who was in that case emperor Wang Mang. This event changed China’s history for multiple reasons.
